CSW2201 Module

CSW2201 Module

The CSW2201 module wifi ultra-long-distance module focuses on the Internet of Things technology. Its innovative LR-WiFi technology (Long Range WiFi) solves the problem of low-cost, high-performance, high-speed, and long-distance wireless communication. Reshape the boundaries of WiFi transmission.

LR-WiFi: The main technology comes from WiFi, which not only has the characteristics of WiFi easy to use, mature, and can be networked, but also solves the missing problem in WiFi: distance.

LR-WiFi has a hundred times that of LoRa, zigbee and other narrow-band communications and a slightly lower rate than WiFi. It can also be compatible with WiFi through an external wireless network card. It can be widely used in wireless cameras, drones, smart buildings, smart agriculture, and wisdom. Fields such as factories, robots, stage and musical instruments.

CSW2201 and standard wifi ground throughput comparison

The comparison data of throughput measured with RTL8188F on open ground at the same time is as follows

Test condition 1: As shown in the figure, 2.5dB gain antenna

8.png

Test condition 2: As shown in the open ground environment, one end of the antenna is 1.8m high, and the other end is 1.5m

9.png

Test method: Use iperf to send UDP packets to the peer to measure throughput, and use 4 channels of 2427MHz frequency
